Elvis remembers:
“As a student, I found five ontological postulates:
1. 1) I am incessantly making false statements.
2. 2) I don’t know if I am making progress towards a true ontological statement.
3. 3) There is a precise definition of a true ontological statement.
4. 4) It is a fact that a true ontological statement is made only under the conditions of a valid observation.
5. 5) I don’t know what a valid observation is. So in a sense, self-defining is much more precise than you might think — but it doesn’t make the situation any less paradoxical.”
